Keeping Hospitality Guests Hydrated is Easy!

When we say our custom water bottles are perfect for hospitality venues, we don’t just mean hotels. Of course, they are perfect for any hotel business – after all, who wouldn’t love to have access to a complimentary bottle of personalized water in their hotel room? But remember, there are many other hospitality venues that can benefit from our private label water as well. Think about it: Wouldn’t you love to be handed a cold bottle of water with a custom label the next time you visit these types of businesses?

• Golf courses

• Wineries

• Country clubs

• All inclusive vacation resorts

• Extended stay villa communities

Of course you would! If you are in ownership or management at any of these types of businesses, that alone should have you thinking about trying custom water bottles out as a hospitality gesture. Here is an anecdote that illustrates the demand perfectly: Recently, one of our employees came back from a trip to a winery/golf course resort with her spouse. They wined, dined and golfed in the hot July sun. Sounds fun, doesn’t it? It also sounds risky. “It was great,” she said, “but it would have been even better if they had done more to keep us hydrated. We had to hike to the nearest building every time we got thirsty.”

It makes sense, doesn’t it? On a hot summer day of golfing and wine tasting, guests need to have bottled water at the ready. When they’re provided with private label water that features the facility’s logo, they are much more than hydrated; they’re also impressed! For the hospitality business, that’s like killing two birds with one stone - and that's what makes our custom water bottles the perfect guest retention tool for hospitality facilities. They keep guests hydrated, happy and healthier both during and after their stay – and increase the chances of you earning their repeat business.

It’s All About the Bottle

That’s what we’re noticing these days, with so many of our private label water bottle customers placing a big focus on bottle design when they contact us. Some of the most common questions regarding bottle design for custom water bottles are:

Q: How many water bottle styles do you have?

A: Great question! At present, we have standard shape, bullet shape and custom design options.

Q: Can I choose from different water bottle sizes?

A: Absolutely. Our standard style is available in 8 oz., 12 oz., 16.9 oz., 20 oz., 23.7 oz. and even 33.8 oz., while our bullet style is available in 12 oz., 16.9 oz. and 33.8 oz.

Q: Is there only one type of water available?

A: Believe it or not, no! We have lots of different water varieties for you to choose from, including spring water, mineral water, vitamin enhanced water, alkaline water, de-ionized water – and yes, flavored water! Any of these can be used to fill the bottles of your choice.

Q: How does the label design process work?

A: If you don’t have a design, we can create a custom one based on your specifications. If you do have a design already, send it to us and we will print it on your custom water bottle labels. More information on our accepted formats, fonts and images is available here.

Q: Are your bottles environmentally friendly?

A: Definitely. If your event or organization is designed to promote a commitment to environmental concerns, you will be happy to hear that each customized water bottle is made from recycled polyethylene terephtalate (rPET) and polyethylene terephtalate (PET) lightweight 50% less plastic. This means that the customized bottled water you provide is always encapsulated in clean, BPA free plastic. Unlike other private label water bottle companies, Riviera Beverages is environmentally responsible throughout the entire chain of production.

Hopefully, that answers any questions you may have about our custom water bottles. To learn more, contact us and we will be glad to help you.

Saving You Money on Private Label Water Bottles

When ordering for any event, be it business or personal, it’s important to consider how much your water bottles are going to cost per person. With that in mind, here are some ways we make our private label water as cost effective as possible.

First, we allow you to design your own labels. We can certainly create a custom label if you like, but we encourage you to submit your own artwork to us if you are looking for a small budget solution. If you are ordering on behalf of a company and they have an art department, assign them the task of designing the custom bottle labels for your order. If you are ordering for a personal event, you can keep all the fun for yourself; designing your own labels can be a great creative outlet!

Next, we allow low minimum orders. This is a wonderful advantage for anyone who is ordering for a small event where there will only be a limited number of people in attendance. After all, there’s no reason why you should be forced to order hundreds of private label water bottles if all you really need is a few dozen. Allowing customers to make low minimum orders is another great way we can help you save.

Finally, we can help you save money by offering you different sizes. When you order bottled water with a private label, you can choose from sizes ranging from:

• 8 oz.
• 12 oz.
• 16.9 oz.
• 20 oz.
• 23.7 oz.
• 33.8 oz.

With us, you get to decide how much water your guests will need; this helps you manage costs much more effectively. As you can see, there are many different ways Riviera Beverages can help you save money on water with custom bottle labels. If you have any questions about an order before placing it, please don’t hesitate to ask us on Facebook or Twitter!

Labeled Bottled Water at Your Summer Event

Let’s be honest: Whether or not your water bottles feature custom labels, they are absolutely necessary for the success of any summertime event. People need clean, filtered water in order to stay refreshed and hydrated; it’s just a fact of life. But if you can get labeled bottled water that features a branded design you created yourself, that’s even better – and it will have people talking about your event for months (or even years) to come! Here are some examples of summer events that go perfectly with customized, private label water bottles.

Fundraisers: If your organization holds its annual charity event in the summer, that’s the perfect opportunity to help your benefactors feel like they’re part of an exclusive group with a completely branded event. Place a cold bottle of water with your group’s logo and the date of the event at every table; it’s sure to have all your donors impressed. Who knows? They may give even more than planned!

Family reunions: When dozens of family members are scattered across the country, the annual reunion is the time to help everyone feel more connected – and one way to do that is with customized items featuring the family name. So in addition to doing this with printed t-shirts, have buckets of labeled bottled water available the whole weekend. Everyone needs the water anyways, and they will appreciate that you went the extra mile to personalize the bottles with (for example), “Smith Family Reunion – August 1, 2014.” A few bottles will probably go home as souvenirs, too!

Company picnics: In the modern business world, creating a company culture is heavily encouraged. Business experts are constantly urging corporations to help their employees feel like part of something larger than themselves, in order to accomplish company objectives. One way you can encourage employee loyalty is to personalize items that staff members use, both in and out of the office. So at the annual company picnic this summer, why not customize the labeled bottled water you provide with the name and date of the event? It’s bound to be a hit with everyone.

These are just a few of the summer events that labeled bottled water will perfectly complement. If you have any more ideas, let us know on Facebook, Twitter or Google+. We would love to hear from you!
